Many Thanks The Fort Meade Alliance would like to extend our sincere appreciation to our retiring board members for their service and commitment to the Alliance and our community: Thank you Larry Linder, Matt Norris, Elizabeth RendónSherman and Joe Samek.
President’s Letter At the Fort Meade Alliance, it’s all about the mission…and generating impact. We are dedicated to fulfilling a mission to support the work and people of Fort George G. Meade, and help Fort Meade drive economic growth in Maryland. Our efforts on behalf of that mission generate real impact for federal contractors and companies in myriad other sectors, for federal and defense agencies, for service members and their families, and for school children, college students and workers in Maryland. We believe our initiatives and programs – including our top-notch events — help member companies and organizations make strategic connections, learn about contracting opportunities and develop best practices. This year we were extremely fortunate to have some of the top leaders in the state and throughout the government contracting environment provide their knowledge and experience to our membership. We were inundated with valuable information and insight at our Industry Outlook Breakfast featuring Doreen Harwood from Leidos; Linnie Haynesworth of Northrop Grumman and Stephanie Hill from Lockheed Martin. Our Conversation with Gen (Ret) Keith Alexander and U.S. Sen. Chris Van Hollen breakfast discussed measures to strengthen U.S. cyber defenses. Our Industry Day did not disappoint with keynote speaker Matt Olsen, formerly of the National Counterterrorism Center and a panel consisting of Tony Davis from USCYBERCOM, Diane Dunshee of NSA and Douglas Packard of DISA. They all discussed how collaboration and innovation by private sector is the key to fighting leading national security threats. In partnership with the National Security Agency’s Office of Small Business Programs, we hosted Business in a Minute, an annual session of business speed dating that enabled companies to meet one-on-one with senior contracting officials from Fort Meade and prime contractors on post. We are very proud of the caliber of events that we provided this year. We thank you for helping us raise the bar and playing such an important role in helping us fulfill our mission.

February 1, 2017 The FMA hosted a Conversation with U.S. Senator Chris Van Hollen & GEN (Ret) Keith Alexander as they discussed the current state of cyber and the economy, and what it means for the region, the nation and the globe. America could improve its cyber defenses by “orders of magnitude” if government, critical industries, private companies and cyber innovators could develop a robust framework for working closely together. However, America’s vast infrastructure and incomplete cyber defenses leaves us with vulnerabilities, he added. To properly defend the country, America also needs to develop a much larger cyber workforce. The National Initiative for Cybersecurity Education reported that the number of open cybersecurity jobs in the U.S. reached 250,000 in 2016. That included 17,000 open jobs in Maryland, said Steven Tiller, President of the Fort Meade Alliance and the morning’s moderator. In addition to supporting education, the federal government needs to implement more effective measures to reduce the processing times for security clearances.
GEN (Ret) Keith Alexander
U.S. Senator Chris Van Hollen
February 3 & 15, 2017 The FMA and other Fort Meade Community Covenant partners participated in briefings to the Anne Arundel County and Howard County state delegations on the importance of Fort Meade as an asset to the region.
March 9, 2017 The FMA hosted a board dinner with Lt. Governor Boyd K. Rutherford, Maryland of Commerce Secretary Mike Gill, Garrison Commander Col. Tom Rickard and CSM Brian E. Cullen.
March 29, 2017 The FMA’s 5th Annual Industry Day, presented by the Meade Business Connect, kicked off with Keynote Speaker Matt Olsen, Co-founder, IronNet Cybersecurity and Former Director, National Counterterrorism Center. In less than a decade, cyber has evolved from an issue that didn’t warrant inclusion in threat assessment briefings to the leading threat to U.S. national security, Olsen told the sold-out crowd. Addressing that threat will require heightened defenses, new federal policy, a cadre of experts and robust innovation from the private sector. Government needs to foster extraordinary collaboration on cyber efforts with the private sector which runs most of America’s critical infrastructure. FMA Industry Day featured a panel discussion with three individuals who are deeply involved with contracting that expertise: Tony Davis, USCYBERCOM Acting Command Acquisition Executive; Diane Dunshee, NSA Deputy Director of Business Management & Acquisition and Deputy Senior Acquisition Executive; and Douglas Packard, DISA Director of Procurement Directorate & Chief of Defense Information Technology Contracting Organization. Panelists, moderated by FMA Board Member, MBC Chair Bill Dunahoo, President of Praxis Engineering, discussed a range of federal initiatives that are impacting federal contracting for cyber services.
Lt. Governor Boyd Rutherford speaks to the FMA and FMA Foundation Boards.

FMA Foundation Milestones, Discoveries and New Horizons With a clear mission and sharpened skills, the Fort Meade Alliance Foundation hit new fundraising milestones in Fiscal 2017 and found new opportunities to further expand our constituency and our services to the Fort Meade community. Over the course of the year, the Foundation raised $182,000. Thank you to the multitude of individuals and organizations who contributed to that achievement. A special thanks to the State of Maryland, the Baltimore Orioles, Praxis Engineering, The Whiting-Turner Contracting Company, and the members of the FMA and FMA Foundation boards for their generous support. The raised funds enabled the Foundation to support the education of military children and students across the Fort Meade Region by financing Tech Mania and STEM Family Night to bolster students’ interest in science, technology, engineering and math. For the sixth straight year, they also enabled us to award the Kenneth O. McCreedy Scholarship to a Meade High School student who plans to pursue higher education linguistics or STEM fields. More than 95 percent of the funds raised this year helped us greatly advance our joint effort with the U.S. Army and the Fort George G. Meade Garrison to expand resiliency services on-post. Through the Foundation’s Ready, Strong and Connected campaign, we are raising $3.6 million needed to fully renovate Fort Meade’s Kuhn Hall and transform it into a Resiliency and Education Center. The campaign has already raised $600,000. The Baltimore Orioles raised $14,000 from their online jersey auction, bringing the total funds donated to the FMA Foundation by the major league team to more than $86,000 over the last several years.
The Backyard BBQ raised $18,000 for the Foundation’s resiliency and education efforts.
Designed to serve 160,000 people on post, the center will host education courses by several colleges and universities, and provide information, programs and services on all five areas of resiliency (physical, emotional, social, family and spiritual). Over the past year, we partnered with community leaders to hone our capital campaign, produced the Ready, Strong and Connected brochure, formed a capital campaign committee and made major advances towards our fundraising goal. We expect to begin construction in early 2018 and complete the center before year’s end. In the course of that work, the FMA Foundation discovered new constituencies and new opportunities. Through our outreach to elected officials, community leaders, other foundations and companies who are not FMA members, we discovered people and organizations who believe in our mission and are eager to support it. This new community of partners which continues to grow, is opening up new opportunities for the FMA Foundation to expand our reach and deliver more benefits to the Fort Meade Region.
